I'm at work today so nothing real exciting to report. My u/s is at 9 in the morning so I'm a bit anxious about that. Regan, I would LOVE to have laser surgery on my eyes. I've been in gla__ses since the 3rd grade. I can't imagine not having gla__ses or contacts. Anyway, I must study. I have sooooooo much to study in such a small amount of time! I'll check in later!

yay new thread!!! hi ann, i'll be thinking of you tomorrow morning and i'm sure everything will be great. i guess everyone is pretty busy. not much new here, my back is about to give up so its time to call it a day. gonna hop in the shower & do some housework. talk to you guys later! XO

WOW! It is really quiet here tonight! I guess starting a new thread jinxed us! I just got home from work. A thunderstorm just went through with some hail. Luckily they weren't very big so I don't think there's any damage. I opened a bottle of champagne and am getting in the bathtub. I have to shave these forests on my legs before my u/s tomorrow! Regan, did you get all your planting and housework done? You said you had fun last night so I'm a__suming it well with Garrett again. Where's everyone else? Ok, I'll be back after my bath!

Hi Ann! Yes it sure is quiet here for sure! I ended up getting most of my planting done. I am having some issues figuring out what I should do so I called a landscape design company because I really need a plan & some help choosing things etc...I need a professional opinion big time. They are sending someone out on Thursday. Got my housework done & I'm just watching American Idol with a cup of tea. Going to take a bath after this and just chill out for the rest of the evening. Tomorrow I have to pick up the chairs & cushions, then in the afternoon the mulch/soil & pea gravel are being delivered. So I'll come back later as well, if we miss each other good luck tomorrow morning!!! XOXO Regan

Evening my girls. I just got home from work. We had a recognition program for all the graduating nurses. I am exhausted, but had to stop in and say hello. Ann and Regan, sounds like you two are working way too hard. I planted some flowers, but that is it. Work is KILLING ME! Amy, yes, NP's here in Kentucky do have DEA numbers. They can prescribe anything but schedule one's. I have to practice for one year before applying for one. Well ladies, looks like I for sure ovulated. My temp is still up, and I am on 9 dpo (I think). Someone at dh's work gave him one of those really expensive fertility monitors for me to use when it comes time...I AM READY. Well, Ann, I hope the u/s goes well. Let us know as soon as you get home. Regan, I hope your love affair is going well (met the family huh?...;) Danielle and Amy, have a good night, and I'll talk to you all tomorrow. Missy, where are youuuuuu? Love ya girls, Brandy.

Good evening girls...I am probably going to bed early tonight cuz i am so tired! I think i could sleep for years lol. I think I am 9dpo with Brandy; i haven't had any signs of implantation, tho, so I dont know what to think. I mean, I have been praying about it and I know that if you don't believe what you pray then it's pointless, but I can't help but tell myself not to get excited yet, either. I just want this roller coaster to be over already lol. I will probably lose it if the 3 cycles of clomid go by without any bfp's. Ok i'm done being depressing lol. Ann, i'll be thinking of you in the morning! Goodnight everyone!

hey brandy and amy! okay so ann don't stress too much about tomorrow, it will all be fine! i am heading to bed as well, all these days of fresh air have knocked me out and i can barely keep my eyes open..lol. so good night to everyone....XO Regan

My goodness! Sounds like everyone is just plain exhausted! I am a bit nervous about tomorrow but I'm just trying to think positive. Brandy, sounds like you're not going to make it till fall before ttc!!!!! Follow your heart and if you truly feel ready, go with it. Don't fight it! Amy, absolutely DO NOT get discouraged if you don't have signs of implantation! Most people don't have implantation signs. Most the charts I've seen that look like implantation (temp drop, spotting, etc) ended up not being preggo. So don't get down yet! It's way too early for that. Missy, Danielle, where you girls at? If you're like everyone else I'm sure you're in bed or hanging out on the couch! I'm headed to bed shortly too. Good night girls and I'll definitely post u/s results as soon as I get home. I do have to do a little shopping before I come home though. Well, nighty night! Love to you all! Ann

OK BLONDE ALERT BLONDE ALERT! I have been checking the old thread waiting for someone to be around (i make shortcuts to the threads so i dont dig thru all the other threads on SOP) and since no one was posting I just thought it was a quiet day - lowe and behold, you all took off on me HAHAHHAHA. Can you guys let me know when u start a new thread LOL - Blonde over here **blush**. Anyhow, just chillin, wondering why I Thats FIVE cookies today - not good! Ann, sending good vibes for your US. Brandy, hope you get some much deserved rest! Regan, hope you get some good input, my hubby is King of HGTV and swears he's got his interior design/landscape design degree from that (just like I have my google MD HAHAHAHHAHA). Amy, don't worry about implant signs - 9 times outta 10 when you "have" the signs, AF shows, and when you swear you are out is when you get your BFP LOL. OK, I think I've gotten caught up - talk to everyone tomorrow! Lotsa love!

OK just realized part of my post must have gotten erased - I talk in the middle about the fact that I made snickerdoodles tonight, ate 3 of them, and ate 2 oreos earlier in the day so I'm a piggy that's eaten 5 cookies today LOL

omg missy i'm not even preggers & i've eaten 5 cookies in a day! LOL. tell your hubby to get up here & landscape my property. :) i love HGTV as well. haha. so ann I'm sending you all kinds of positive energy this morning girl! brandy you sound crazy busy, you're gonna need a vacay before you start ttc again! seems everyone was tired yesterday on this thread! lol. well i'm going to go for a run with the dogs, it supposed to be really rainy/stormy here this afternoon. heading out to run all my errands & go sign some stuff at the lawyers. so i'll check in later & see if there is any news from anyone!!! XOXO

hi ladies! Ann good luck today!!! amy def. don't give up hope! regan you are a busy busy woman! lol. brandy, i wish i was a nurse already, i won't even get into the a__sociates program til freaking spring! i would have this fall b___ttt, little chloe here is SUPPOSED to arrive aug. 1 and school starts the 14 or 15 i think, so i am not leaving my 2 wk old with a babysitter 5 days a week. so i decided to hold off til spring :( dang it. lol. i am so ready for actual nursing cla__ses! i want to be a labor and delivery nurse! i can't wait, i should be studying for my anatomy finals, b___tt, as you see im not! lol hope everyones day goes well!

girls! just checking in & bumping us up. the chairs turned out well so happy i didn't attempt that myself! lol. so i'm just grabbing some lunch & relaxing for a bit before my big landscaping delivery arrives at 2pm. ann i'm anxiously waiting to hear from you!!! :) hi danielle good to hear from you! okay i'll check back in after i deal with all this stuff & see what's up! XO

hey no chatty chatty!!! lol. okay i got everything into the barn just in time, it is pouring rain here!!! the dogs are locked in the sunroom as they collectively decided to roll in a mud puddle and my back hurts too much to bath them right now! :) so how is everyone doing? any news? ann i hope everything went great today at your u/s. well i've delayed the inevitable long enough time to clean off the furb___s...RAMBO is currently swinging off of the string that lowers the blinds...LOL! back later & i want some chatter people!!! XOXO Regan

Ok, I'm here! You all know how easy it is to get busy with a million things! I had to repaint all the doors I just did the other day cause I ended up hating the color! So now they look like I wanted them to. The u/s went well, Thank God! 2 small cysts but that's ok. I'll start the Clomid again tomorrow and the trigger shot has been ordered. I saw the nurse pract_tioner today and we talked about IUI. She's going to talk to my doctor about it tomorrow but I told her I didn't want to do that if we didn't have to. If the doc thinks we can do it on our own, I'd much rather that be the case. So we're starting at square one again. I'm ready though. Regan, you have been staying busy enough for all of us!! Take a break girl! I can picture RAMBO hanging from the blinds!! That's so freakin cute!! Missy, glad you found us! I can't wait till I can blame eating 5 cookies on pregnancy! Brandy, have you and DH talked any more about when you're going to start ttc again? Danielle, I totally understand waiting on school. I know you want badly to get it done but it will happen in good time. I'll graduate next May with my BSN and if I get preggo this cycle I'll be due in February! Yikes! Luckily, my cla__ses are online and I have things set up so I'll only have to take 1 cla__s that semester. But I'm starting the Master's program in the fall of 09 so that could get a little tricky. I guess I'll be in Brandy's boat then! Amy, how are you feeling today? I was feeling a bit frustrated about the 3 Clomid cycles too. Since last cycle didn't work I only have 2 more left before I have to start paying big bucks and getting into crazy stuff. However, after my appt today I feel a lot better. The NP told me if I'm not preggo after the 3 Clomid cycles and the fact that my body really has responded well and the S/A was good, the RE would have me do IUI. She felt very confident that I would get preggo that way if these next 2 cycles don't work. So don't give up hope. I know that's easier said than done but we're in this together! I just have to remind myself that Missy didn't preggo till her 3rd round of Clomid so I can't give up! Well, I'm going to do some little stuff around the house. I'll check in later!

hi ann! happy to hear everything went well and you're raring & ready to go...lol! not much new here just making grilled cheese sandwich & tomato soup for dinner..haha. very gourmet, but i had a craving for it. the rain has died down for the most part but it is very windy & still thundering. the perfect night for comfort food & america's next top model..lol! love to everyone, back later1 XO
